Parts Unknown's 2016 WWE Big Board


Hey, anyone else hear about the potential brand split coming up? Sure you have. Now, you know what that means, right? Draft!

From the NFL to the NBA (not so much MLB) and now, once again, to WWE--this country is pretty draft-crazy. Maybe it's the fantasy aspect, maybe it's the weeks of buildup or maybe it's just the pure debate aspect of drafts that makes us love it so much.

In any event, a draft will presumably be in the works if WWE is headed towards a schism between their Raw and Smackdown brands. And if that's the case, who goes where and when in the selection process do they go?

Well, here's my shot at it--the Parts Unknown's 2016 WWE Big Board.

My Favorite Royal Rumble Moment

Ric Flair's championship triumph in 1992, Shawn Michaels' marathon in 1995, Triple H's return in 2002 and John Cena's MSG shocker in 2008. These are just a few of the most memorable and, perhaps, beloved moments in Royal Rumble history.

Mine, however, may stray a bit towards the unconventional side...
